"The Gettysburg Address, A Reenactment" - A History Play
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities
As a classroom teacher I love to get my students up and active in class! Here is another chance to do just that by reenacting Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. This play/reenactment is meant to enhance any lesson you may have about the Civil War (especially the importance of Gettysburg), government (the equality of all people), famous speeches, etc... It usually takes my class about 15-20 minutes to complete -have fun! The play/reenactment has three brief scenes: 1) the morning of the 19th of November at the David Wills house, 2) arrival of Lincoln to the dedication around noon, and 3) the Gettysburg Address. Everyone in your class can get involved from Lincoln to being in the crowd. I try to use many sources when writing my lessons, plays, etc...lf possible, I really like to use eyewitness accounts. This reenactment uses the memories of three different eyewitnesses there that day. One of the eyewitnesses, William Rathvon, was literally within about 15 feet of Lincoln. Seventy five years later, a much older William Rathvon will make the only known recording of an eyewitness to the Gettysburg Address. It's fascinating! You can easily find that recording online. Another eyewitness, Sarah A Cooke (Myers), was well-known to many in Pennsylvania to have recounted what she experienced at Gettysburg, including shaking the hand of the President. Finally, Joseph Goulden, later Congressman Goulden, was just 18 when he listened to Lincoln. Later, he said Lincoln's words were part of the inspiration for him to join the United States Marine Corps during the Civil War. I hope you enjoy this reenactment as much as my students do! It will help any of your lessons "come alive" in the classroom and should lead to some great classroom discussion, as well!

This Germany: The Heart of Europe (level r) guided reading book with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Germany: The Heart of Europe Genre: Nonfiction Subject: Social Studies (Geography/Culture/History) Primary Topic: Germany’s geography, history, culture, and modern life Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): R What This Book Teaches Best Germany’s central location in Europe and how that makes it a crossroads for trade, travel, and cultural exchange. Physical geography and waterways , including the Bavarian Alps and the Rhine River’s role in transportation. History meeting modern life through Berlin’s past division (Berlin Wall) and the Brandenburg Gate as a symbol of reunification. Cultural traditions , including long-held festivals, music (Bach and Beethoven), and traditional clothing like lederhosen and dirndls. Modern strengths and priorities , such as engineering/technology, renewable energy, public transportation, and environmental conservation. Learning Goals Students will describe where Germany is located in Europe and explain why its location matters in the text. Students will identify major physical features of Germany (plains, mountains, or the Bavarian Alps) using details from the text. Students will explain why the text says rivers like the Rhine are important for moving goods between cities. Students will describe Berlin as the capital and explain one way the text shows history and modern life together there. Students will describe what the text says about castles from the Middle Ages and what they are used for today. Students will identify examples of Germany today (technology/engineering, renewable energy, conservation, education, or democracy) using text evidence. Key Vocabulary From the Text crossroads — central meeting place where routes and people connect. metropolis — a very large, busy city. reunification — joining back together after being separated. renewable — energy source replaced naturally, like wind or sun. conservation — protecting nature so it stays healthy for the future. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What kinds of facts do you think a book about Germany might teach you? Comprehension questions: Why does the text say Germany is a major crossroads within the European Union? Comprehension questions: What does the text say the Brandenburg Gate represents today? Comprehension questions: What is one way the text says Germany works to protect the climate? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.
